OpenWhispr 1.7.5
New models and providers, multiple hotkeys per action, and around a dozen fixes across meetings, notes, transcription, and every platform.
New
- Latest cloud models: OpenAI GPT-5.6 (Sol/Terra/Luna) and Anthropic Claude Fable 5 and Sonnet 5 — plus Claude Fable 5 for AWS Bedrock.
- OpenRouter is now a built-in provider, with a searchable, grouped picker for its 300+ models.
- Corti can run AI cleanup and reasoning, not just transcription. For healthcare use, that text stays on Corti (EU) or the HIPAA-compliant OpenWhispr Cloud — never a third-party model.
- Tinfoil confidential transcription now covers uploaded audio, not just live dictation.
- Multiple hotkeys per action — bind more than one key to dictation, agent, voice agent, or meeting.
- Enterprise / AWS Bedrock: region-aware model IDs, a live model catalog, and Agent Mode (tool-calling) support.
Fixed
- Meetings: remote speakers no longer collapse into one; long calls reconnect past the 60-minute limit without losing audio; fewer words dropped during cross-talk.
- Notes: enhancement no longer reuses another note's transcript or renames notes you've already titled.
- Cloud transcription: long recordings retry failed chunks instead of failing or leaving gaps.
- macOS: dictation into Claude Desktop and claude.ai no longer breaks after the first paste.
- Windows: fixed a false "No audio detected", the firewall prompt for local Parakeet, and local transcription failing on some builds.
- Linux: fixed Wayland global-hotkey crashes on Node 24.
Plus several smaller fixes — full list in the changelog.
